Steep but short hike with amazing views right outside the front door! Walk to the trail head at the corner and start a steep 20-30 minute hike to enjoy the gorgeous views of Pender Harbour and Texada island in the distance. This hike has been enjoyed by many a family, regardless of child age - children feel like they have truly conquered a mountain when they finish!

A very popular hike about 20 minutes away in Egmont. Flat and easy. Time your hike to arrive at high tide and you may be rewarded with watching kayakers ride the world
Famous Skookumchuck rapids. This hike can be busier than most due to the popularity of seeing the rapids, but we’ll worth it and there’s lots of room on the trail. Grab a coffee at the cute little shop near the trail head when you’re done!

Daniel Point park is a short walk away from the house. About 15 minutes on paved street and then a short 10 minute rocky trail descent to the point. This is a great place to take a book and a blanket and hang out for an hour or two. Seals often hang out there too so you might have some buddies!

A long, rocky beach that's lovely for beach combing with the kids and relaxing with a book. Wonderful on a blustery day! About 30 minutes away in Half Moon Bay.

This little beach is VERY popular with families, as it has a roped off swimming area in the summer months. The beach can be very busy, so be prepared for a lot of families. If you are more adventerous, you can launch your kayaks or paddle boards here and head out to some less inhabited small islands about a 10-15 minute paddle away. Load up a cooler with some snacks and magazines and you're in for a delightful afternoon. About a 20 minute drive from the house.

I have not spent time at this lake but understand it is popular for families, as it has a gradual entry into the water, unlike the other lakes in the area. About a 10 minute drive from the house.
